Spirit of the Oak : Yoga & Art Retreat at Inner Bloom
Join us for a day of deep nurture, creativity and enriching nature based connection at the stunning Inner Bloom studio nestled at the base of the South Downs. With the energy of the Oak Tree as our guide, we’ll take you on a beautiful journey through the doorway of the Oak (Duir) into the subconscious - considering the seeds (acorns) we will nourish through the Autumn and the leaves that we are ready to release.
Sunday 15th October 2023 - 10:30 to 16:30 - Inner Bloom, BN5 2XH
This Autumn season Artist-teacher / SAS Founder Ellie Green and Holistic Health Therapist, Yoga & Meditation teacher Derry Jayne are combining forces to bring to you a deeply nurturing retreat connecting to the beautiful grounding energy of the Oak Tree.
Working with the energy of the New Moon (14th October) we’ll breathe love and intention into the seeds we wish to nurture over the Autumn season - whilst equally considering that which we are ready release in order to create a fertile compost for these new seeds to grow.
We’ll work with the Oak Tree in a multitude of ways - bringing in the strength and stability of the Oak through our yoga practice, rooting deeply into the Earth below. Ellie will then lead us on an Oak tree-inspired guided visualisation and offer some prompts for journaling to encourage reflection.
At lunchtime we’ll light a warming fire and gather around it to bread bread together, enjoying a nourishing plant based stew with seasonal vegetables.
And in the afternoon we’ll settle down to a soothing beginner-kind creative workshop painting Oak leaves & acorns with inks & a dip pen and adding shimmering paints to reflect the rusty tones of Autumn. We’ll use this practice as a moving meditation- a way to anchor our intentions for both growth and release.
